The San Fransisco treat and what a treat it was. We were so lucky. We met some new friends in Arizona – Margie and Gary. They live just outside of San Fransisco and invited us to stay in the driveway for a couple of weeks. They also showed us around and then turned us loose to see everything – or everything we could in two weeks. Definitely going to return to see more.

We saw the Golden Gate Bridge on this wonderfully clear day – a day after it was so fogged in that we couldn’t see the towers as we drove by them. BTW – the fog is name Karl. It’s from the 2003 movie Big Fish. It’s a very interesting fog and quite different from fog in the northeast. It looks like a large, long snake coming in the bay. In the northeast it is all over and not well defined.

We visited the Haight-Ashbury area. What a fun area! The photo below is the Goodwill store in the area. Ben and Jerry’s right behind the famous sign.
